This appears in a list of software strings. As it appears to be related to Belgium, I'm assuming this is Flemish. It seems to be something to do with boxes, but Flemish is not one of my working languages.

Note from asker:

Comment: "Thabks to everyone for chipping in. PS: @writeaway: The dictionary I looked at translated "bac" as tray or container, so knowing it can also mean a crate is handy to know for future reference."
